Definitions
- the invention relates to a covering composition, a method and a device for isolating tooth material to be treated and producing a shield for the surrounding gums and/or adjacent teeth.
- the acid etching technique at the dental surgery, in the context of applying a composite filling and bleaching with preparations containing a high percentage of peroxide (in-office bleaching).
- the dental enamel is treated with a highly-concentrated, usually approximately 35 wt. % phosphoric acid within a prepared tooth cavity to improve the adhesion before the application of a primer and/or bonding.
- the phosphoric acid solution or phosphoric acid gel is then left to act for approximately 30 seconds on the dental enamel.
- bleaching agents with a content of up to 35 wt. % hydrogen peroxide are directly applied onto the surface of the tooth to whiten the teeth.
- the bleaching agent is applied on the external surfaces of the tooth up to the vicinity of the gum margin.
- a protective cover of the oral mucosa is also imperative in this case to prevent burning.
- a possibility for shielding consists in the use of a resilient sheet made from rubber which is referred to as a dental dam.
- the dentist then has to perforate the sheet at suitable points and punch out holes of a corresponding size in the sheet, through which the teeth to be treated are subsequently pushed.
- the size of the holes is unsuitable or where there are imperfections on the surface of the tooth, the problem frequently arises that the resilient sheet does not sit and seal precisely or tightly enough along the gum margin and thus does not sufficiently protect the oral mucosa.
- the positioning of a dental dam is regarded by many dentists as too costly and awkward. The danger arises that when stretched or during the treatment the rubber tears or loosens. As a result the isolating effect of the dental dam is lost and the material present on the exterior of the rubber sheet can enter the oral cavity. Patients find the cumbersome equipment and the fastening of the rubber on the neck of the tooth unpleasant.
- compositions and methods are cited which are designed to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages of the dental dam technique when sealing soft tissue parts in the mouth interior.
- a polymerisable material is protected in the Patent which comprises at least one monomer, a curing agent and at least one further compound.
- the compositions are conventional, light-curing acrylate systems which have to be considerably modified for use on soft tissues. As free-radical polymerisation of acrylates initiated by light releases a large amount of heat during cross-linking, when this system is used on oral soft tissue, such as for example the gums, a non-reactive additive such as mineral oil or polyol must be added to the mixture to ensure that the tissue of the patient does not suffer any burns.
- a plasticiser is therefore also necessary to reduce the cross-link density of the acrylate and thus to be able to ensure that the polymerised material can be removed again from the tissue after the treatment.
- a reflective material such as for example mica, a portion of the energy radiated by the polymerisation lamp into the mixture is intended to be reflected, thus to help reduce the resulting heat energy in the mixture.
- a thickening agent such as for example xanthan gum, cellulose derivative, carboxypolymethylene, polyethylene oxide or high molecular weight polypropylene glycol is recommended in the Patent to provide it with muco-adhesive properties.
- a particular disadvantage of the invention moreover is that by using a plasticiser an attempt is made to reduce substantially the degree of polymerisation.
- a reduced degree of polymerisation allows the presence of either free monomers or corresponding oligomer structures of lower molecular weight. It is known that polymer compounds with a molecular weight of less than 1000 g/mol easily pass through biological membranes and bioaccumulate. (J H Hamilton, R Sutcliffe, Ecological Assessment of Polymers, 1996, Page 274).
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a covering composition, a method and a device for isolating a tooth material to be treated and producing a shield for the surrounding gums and/or adjacent teeth from dental treatments which, relative to the prior art, can be more rapidly applied and are more comfortable and less toxic to use.
- ambient temperature self-curing systems which cure to an elastomeric material, fulfill the object very well.
- it refers to systems which are mixed to a homogenous composition immediately before and/or when applying a plurality of components, preferably two components.
- ambient temperature the range between normal room temperature (15-25° C.) and mouth temperature (ca. 37° C.) is understood.
- the curing starts spontaneously in this temperature range immediately after mixing the components without the addition of energy through light or heat being necessary.
- the substance class of so-called ‘cold-curing’, addition-cross-linking silicones (RTV-2 A-silicones) proves to be particularly suitable.
- the material is preferably applied as a paste in the mouth and by cross-linking changes from a spreadable consistency into the rubber-elastic state.
- the cross-linked material surprisingly adheres to the gum and due to its elastomeric property can easily be pulled off the substrate in one piece after the treatment and removed from the mouth.
- the adhesion of the silicone to the gums which is excellent for the inventive purpose and which is even observed when the soft tissues are relatively dry by using only a cotton swab and an air blower, presents a completely unexpected finding, as a pronounced strong hydrophobia is a general and characterising feature of silicone.
- hydrophobia of the cured surfaces of the silicones promotes the sealing and covering effect relative to conventional hydrophilic treatments such as bleaching and etching agents. Moreover they are neutral in taste and smell, physiologically harmless and can be adjusted over very short curing times. Relative to acrylates, the substance class of the prior art, they are not obviously exothermic during the curing process and show no measurable reduction in size.
- Suitable substance classes for a covering composition for isolating tooth material to be treated and producing a shield for the surrounding gums and/or adjacent teeth from dental treatments are condensation cross-linking silicones (C-silicones) and polyether materials, as are described in DE 4306997.
- the mixture ratio of the two components can be between 1:10 and 10:1 and preferably lies between 1:4 and 4:1 and particularly preferably between 2:1 and 1:2.
- covering compositions according to the invention are used in a double chamber cartridge with a static mixing cannula for an impermeable covering of teeth and/or gums in the mouth interior, then the advantageous properties of this method of use are revealed:
- silicones With addition-cross-linking silicones, curing generally takes place by a platinum-catalysed addition reaction of Si—H functional polysiloxanes to polysiloxane with unsaturated hydrocarbon groups, generally vinyl or allyl groups.
- the silicone compositions are normally used as a two component system. The synthesis of the individual components takes place in such a manner that each component is in itself not reactive and therefore stable. The storage stability of the silicone compositions is thus ensured by a separation of Si—H functional polysiloxane and the platinum catalyst.
- the one component contains a vinyl functional polydimethylsiloxane, a filler and a Si—H functional polydimethylsiloxane, whilst the other component also contains a vinyl-functional polydimethylsiloxane, a filler and a platinum catalyst.
- the fluidity of the pastes is governed by the contents of the filler and the viscosity of the polysiloxane used.
- thixotroping agents pigments, dyes, plasticisers, stabilisers, emulsifiers, hydrophilic agents, reaction inhibitors, hydrogen absorbers or fixing agents can be used as additives.
- the fillers used in the composites can have absorption properties (such as diatomite, zeolite, calcium carbonate), reinforcing properties of the material (silicas) or non-reinforcing properties of the material (quartz, cristobalite, aluminium oxide, zinc oxide).
- Thixotroping agents such as pyrogenic silicas, polymeric polyalkylene oxide or cellulose derivatives, govern the stability of the mixture, whilst plasticisers (including paraffin, tallow, wax) stabilisers, emulsifiers and hydrophilising agents can ensure the correct handling and stability properties. Hydrophilising agents ensure improved wettability of the mixture on the damp soft tissues of the mouth and produce improved flow behaviour of the pastes.
- Suitable additives are ethoxylated fatty alcohols and polyalkylene glycol esters or polyalkylene glycol ethers.
- the vinyl-functional polydimethylsiloxanes are preferably of linear composition and comprise end groups of dimethylvinylsiloxane units. If a higher degree of cross-linking is to be reached, compounds are used which have more than two vinyl groups per molecule, the vinyl groups then being able to be distributed across the molecular structure.
- the crosslinker is an organohydrogenpolysiloxane with at least three Si—H groups per molecule. Additionally organohydrogenpolysiloxanes with two Si—H groups per molecule can be used as so-called chain extenders to influence the curing behaviour and the mechanical strength.
- the volume ratios of vinyl-functional polydimethylsiloxane to organohydrogensiloxane are generally selected so that 1 to 3 mol of Si—H units are available per mol of unsaturated groups.
- the catalyst used has to catalyse the reaction between the Si—H groups and the vinylsiloxane. It is known to use platinum or palladium compounds to this end.
- a frequently used catalyst is a platinum complex which is produced from hexachloroplatinic acid by a reduction with tetramethyldivinyldisiloxane and is used in a volume of 4 to 400 ppm, preferably between 20 and 50 ppm, as elemental platinum and relative to the total weight of the mixture.
- Component 1 (Basic Paste)
- Component 2 (Catalyst Paste)
- a surface-treated pyrogenic silica (Aerosil R 972, Degussa A G)
- 0.1 parts of a white coloured pigment titanium dioxide
- the basic and catalyst pastes are respectively filled in one chamber of a 5 ml double syringe with a volume ratio of 1:1 (Mixpac Systems AG) free of air bubbles.
- a suitable mixing attachment applied directly onto the oral mucosa in the immediate vicinity of the area to be treated.
- the paste emerges homogenously mixed from the mixing attachment in a consistency which allows a smooth coating of the tooth to be treated and exhibits a flow-on behaviour which ensures a secure seal and adhesion on the oral mucosa.
- the material After the brief flow-on phase the material has a stability which prevents the material from running down or spreading and allows a precise application.
- the curing behaviour allows rapid application of the continuous coating of an entire row of teeth without the blocking of the mixing cannula, the paste still being able to be moved and easily spread with the cannula tip during the application.
- the curing takes place at mouth temperature approximately 5 seconds after mixing and is so far advanced within 10 seconds that the composition has solidified as rubber-elastic and further treatment can be begun immediately. After the treatment the cured silicone is easily removed in one piece without leaving any residue.
- any dependent claim which follows should be taken as alternatively written in a multiple dependent form from all prior claims which possess all antecedents referenced in such dependent claim if such multiple dependent format is an accepted format within the jurisdiction (e.g. each claim depending directly from claim 1 should be alternatively taken as depending from all previous claims).
- each claim depending directly from claim 1 should be alternatively taken as depending from all previous claims.
- the following dependent claims should each be also taken as alternatively written in each singly dependent claim format which creates a dependency from a prior antecedent-possessing claim other than the specific claim listed in such dependent claim below.
